Upvote. Love 'im. But, as a native and current resident, I cannot abide the misspelling; ManhattAn, please.

Thanks for that, I've updated the name (pity the address will forever more have the misspelling )

I am also a Manhattan resident. And I cannot abide misspelling BorschT.

Oh yeah, and Mel brooks is one of the greatest people who ever lived. Thanks for the post.

P.S: It's also spelled borshch but from what I understand, that's not the variant used by Jewish New Yorkers like Mel.

Moving this video to spoco2's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 3 days.

Does a legend of comedy such as Mr Brooks really need to *beg? I mean, really?
